A Civilized Voice in a New Media Environment --Notes --Bibliography --IndexThe people who shaped America's public broadcasting system thought it should be "a civilized voice in a civilized community"-a clear alternative to commercial broadcasting. This book tells the story of how NPR has tried to embody this idea. Michael P. McCauley describes NPR's evolution from virtual obscurity in the early 1970's, when it was riddled with difficulties-political battles, unseasoned leadership, funding problems-to a first-rate broadcast organization. The book draws on a wealth of primary evidence, including fifty-seven interviews with people who have been central to the NPR story, and it places the network within the historical context of the wider U.S. radio industry. Since the late 1970's, NPR has worked hard to understand the characteristics of its audience. Because of this, its content is now targeted toward its most loyal listeners-highly educated baby-boomers, for the most part-who help support their local stations through pledges and fund drives.Trials and triumphs of National Public RadioPublic radioUnited StatesRadio broadcastersUnited StatesElectronic books.Public radioRadio broadcasters384.54/0973McCauley Michael P.1958-1048234MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910451627203321NPR2476401UNINA05323nam 2200709Ia 450 991078531590332120230725025717.0979-84-00-61813-01-282-93353-197866129335300-313-38346-410.5040/9798400618130(CKB)2670000000059407(EBL)617141(OCoLC)693772762(SSID)ssj0000412780(PQKBManifestationID)12183355(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000412780(PQKBWorkID)10368162(PQKB)10480017(Au-PeEL)EBL617141(CaPaEBR)ebr10437161(CaONFJC)MIL293353(MiAaPQ)EBC617141(OCoLC)1395568384(UkLoBP)BP9798400618130BC(EXLCZ)99267000000005940720230825e20172023 uy 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrBeyond suppression[electronic resource] global perspectives on youth violence /Joan Serra Hoffman, Lyndee Knox, and Robert Cohen, editors1st ed.Santa Barbara :Libraries Unlimited,2017.London :Bloomsbury Publishing (UK),2023.1 online resource (268 p.)Global Crime and JusticeDescription based upon print version of record.0-313-38345-6 Includes bibliographical references and index.Cover; Title Page; Copyright Page; Table of Contents; Series Foreword by Graeme R.

Putting Violence Prevention Efforts in Perspective; Index; About the Editors and ContributorsThis examination of youth violence provides readers with insights from international experts and real-life examples of how nations and communities around the world have successfully dealt with the issue. The magnitude of the problem of youth violence in nations throughout the world is shocking. What is encouraging is that strategies to combat this issue do appear to work. For example, community-based restorative justice programs in Northern Ireland reduced retaliatory strikes by paramilitary youth groups by 75 percent, and research trials of policy and intervention strategies, such as parent training and early childhood education, have been shown to significantly reduce youth violence. This text offers a comprehensive overview of youth violence, including background information that defines the problem internationally, a conceptual framework for understanding approaches to youth violence, examinations of multiple case studies, and examples of prevention programs. The final section presents conclusions and suggested strategies for dealing with interpersonal violence and recommendations for future policy.Global Crime and Justice.CriminologyViolence in societybicsscCriminology.Violence in society303.60835Cohen RobertHoffman Joan SerraKnox LyndeeUkLoBPUkLoBPBOOK9910785315903321Beyond suppression3726674UNINA
